Sexuality Happens

I am a big Hitachi fan. That’s an understatement.  I may be the Hitachi’s biggest fan. Ever.

But a little bird kept telling me how amazing the Wahl Vibrator was. Over and over again.

So I wanted to get one, and luckily enough for me, Babeland was happy enough to oblige my whim. I waited and waited. And then, of course as soon as it came, I was sick. And then, once I was feeling better, I had my first ever yeast infection (probably from the antibiotics I was on for being sick).  So I waited some more.

And then? The day of reckoning.  Keeping in mind that I’ve been loving on the Hitachi for a good 3 or 4 years at this point, and you can imagine what this looked like in my mind. A shoot out in the SM Corral between the Wahl and the Hitachi.  Hitachi had the bettin’ odds, but I was willing to give the under dog Wahl a chance.

I plugged ‘er on in, and lay back in bed.  I started first with the attachment it already had (there are 7 in all), which is the one displayed on the box.  And logically, I started at level 1 (out of 2).

Not bad. A little tickly, but it did feel nice.  However, no way in hell it was giving my magic wand a run for my money.  I tried it on my back, breasts, hip bones, etc.  Overall? It was an excellent massager…but even as I switched to all the different attachments, on level 1, it just was too light buzzy, and wasn’t going to get me going, no way no how.

And then, once I’d tried out all the attachments (I really like the larger circle with the pokey things – that felt amazing!) on level 1, I kicked it up a notch to level 2.

As a friend would say, OH EM GEESE! Whole different ball game (I know I’m mixing my metaphors, and they didn’t play ball in the Old West…but bear with me!). It was this like deep, penetrating vibration…that was almost too much for ME to handle. *ME* She of the weapons grade sex toys. She of the Hitachi and Lelo. She of the “plug ‘er in, let ‘er rip.” Yeah. It was THAT strong.  And it felt phenomenal…when I could take it. 

Brilliant. Really.  One level is good for massaging and a little teasing, the other excellent for getting off.  I had to kind of re-train my body to get off using it, since it was so used to the Hitachi, but it was totally do-able.  

One small problem with it is that it cramps my style a bit.  Unlike the Hitachi which you can balance against you, or tuck into your underwear (thereby leaving your hands free for other fun things), you have to physically hold onto the Wahl as it vibrators your hands immensely.  Slightly annoying, slightly frustrating….but still worth it

Like the Hitachi, the Wahl is definitely affordable, which is always a bonus.  If I had to choose between the two, I’ll still go with my old favorite..but since I don’t, I’m happy to have both on call. 4.5 stars!
